Good morning. We're allowed to use the auditorium today, so let's—

Ayumu told us that something's bothering you!

Huh? Ayumu?

I told the others about yesterday. I thought that my words alone might not have been enough to help you through your troubles.

What?! You told them about yesterday?!

We made her tell us. We've all noticed that you've been acting odd lately.

Yeah. You've been looking downcast a lot. It's pretty obvious since it's rare to see you like this.

Um, I'm sorry to make you guys worry about me. But I'm really—

You don't have to act strong! You can tell me all about your problems!

I know! Would you like a special Kasumin bread roll? It'll cheer you up!

My family swears by a blend of Chinese medicinal herbs that's been passed down from each generation. It's said that just drinking it will work for whatever ails you.

What I'm trying to say is, I'm starting to feel better about things, so I'll be all ri—

I might not be dependable, but I still want to help you. Does it bother you that I feel that way?

Of course it doesn't bother me!

Please don't ever think that you don't belong in the School Idol Club. We need you here!

That's right! You're basically a part of me now, Prez. I rely on you even when I'm up on stage performing!

We all feel the same way. It's thanks to you that we can perform on stage at all.

Exactly. You've taught us how to have the most fun ever!

We should've been telling you just how much you mean to us.

You're our biggest fan, and you love watching us perform. Knowing that is how we're able to do our best.

See? Everyone's right. You love school idols just as much as we do. Do you get it now?

Y-Yeah…

Nobody doubts your school idol love when you support them so passionately.

You're so fired up when you're supporting school idols. That encouragement is really helpful, you know.

Hey, what did you think of my performance? Do you want to keep watching me again and again?

You're asking the little baby for her opinion? That's new.

Well, all of you are empowered by this girl's support, right? At the live show the other day, I finally understood it too.

She said that she wanted to keep watching my performance. It was really motivating.

So, I want more of that motivation.

I get that. I want more of your support, too!

School idols can't perform their best without receiving all of that school idol love.

School idol love is something that only those who truly love school idols can provide. It's a special power!

Okay… I get it, you guys!

I can only see myself as someone who supports you guys. Being your number one fan is the most important thing to me.

I've felt included in our school idol club activities by putting all of my energy and passion into cheering you guys on, instead of performing!

Let's go to the auditorium, you guys! I want to go up on stage and have you all watch me!

[Fade in/out.]

She wants to go up on stage? What does that mean?

Didn't she say that she wasn't going to perform?

I'm sure that we'll find out if we watch. Oh, she's coming out now.

[Fade in/out.]

I'm making a declaration! I love school idols, and I love every school idol at Nijigasaki!

I want to always support Ayumu as she earnestly chases her dreams!

I want to swoon at Kasumi's cuteness!

I want to be immersed in the worlds that Shizuku creates!

I want to be at the mercy of Karin's intense, passionate gaze!

I want to watch Ai have a blast, and have fun together with her at her performances!

I want to make all of Kanata's wildest dreams come true!

I want to help Setsuna achieve her ambitions!

I want to wrap myself up in Emma's loving singing voice!

I want to watch as Rina connects with the whole wide world!

I want to have a front-row seat and be the first person to witness Shioriko change the world!

I want to listen to Mia's singing voice ring out loud and clear!

I want to accept everything that Lanzhu has to give, and return the love back to her in spades!

*Huff* *Puff*

Ahaha! This is what I can give to the world of school idols! I can share my love with all of the school idols here!

[Fade in/out.]

How wonderful! I love the way that you do your school idol club activities!

I'm moved, Prez! This performance of yours is the best!

Everyone has their own way of showing love, huh. We're friends who love the same thing more than we can stand… We're all members of the School Idol Club!
